Thompson Okanagan wines dominated the recent All Canadian Wine Championships, which were held virtually this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Awards were handed out in 51 categories, and the Thompson Okanagan region accounted for 32 double gold winners. That works out to a sparkling 63% of all double gold winners.

A total of 130 wineries across the country entered 805 wines to be judged this year, including 545 from B.C. Eleven people comprised the judging panel.
